I like to serve this dish family style so that all hands are on deck as you build your lettuce wraps as you chomp! To do this I get a platter to serve the lettuce leaves on, to the side of it have the kimchi fried rice and bulgogi mix in two other separate bowls and top the bulgogi mix with toasted sesame seeds. Provide serving utensils for each item and go to town!
